1. Exordium / The Cold Taste of Steel

What am I doing here?
My head is filled with fear
My heart is pounding fast
Twisting and dying fast

[Pre Chorus]
Was it a dream or was it real?
The blood on my hands, so hard to conceal

[Chorus]
Unsure of it all, don't know what I feel
This knife in my hand, the cold taste of steel

[Solo- Cooper]

The waves of emotion
They sweep over me
So hard to control
My dark tendencies

[Chorus]
[Solo- Dow/Cooper/Dow/Cooper/Dow]
[Chorus]




2. Mechanized

I'm physically conscious, yet mentally dead
Wires and circuits, twist within
Walking 'round in a hollow shell
Awake but not really there
Walking 'round in this hollow shell
Living's my cross to bare

Set number of tasks, nothing more
Never changing, forever constant

Condemned upon a straight path
Vicious cycle deeply engrained
Condemned upon this straight path
As I go fucking insane

[Chorus]
Mechanized - Seeming Endless
Standardized - The Levelling Out

My shallow existence, within this box
Trapped in a maze with no escape

Just a robot in society
A puppet on a string
Another Robot in society
Told where to fit in

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Shut tight, locked down, breakable, I'm bound

[Solo- Dow/Cooper/Cooper]

I want to get out of this hell
Just have to find a better way
How long I've been here
No one can tell me
I have to end this
I want to break free

[Chorus]




3. Transgression

Ask the dusk settles in
My senses become alert
From a mere man
To a beast I convert

Honing the raw instincts
That are buried deep within
Poised and ready to roar
"Let the hunt begin"

[Solo- Cooper]

On the prowl I seek my victim
Oblivious to him
The thrill of the chase
And now I'm closing in

The feeding frenzy has begun
I have to seek another's blood
Roaming the streets in the dead of night
No one escapes my all seeing eye

[Pre Chorus]
Hunt - kill - prey
Live to fight another day
Stalk - find - feed
I can't deny my primal needs

[Chorus]
The moon is high
My victims rise
On this night
You won't survive

[Chorus]
[Solo- Cooper]
[Chorus]




4. Under a Sombre Moon

Sun goes down, night fades in
The darkness on horizon
Evil things begin to stir
Your chilling screams pierce the dusk

Dim shadows, endless voids
Gloom descends upon surrounds
Running fast, sweat is cold
I feel a chill on my neck

[Chorus]
Under a sombre moon
Frost forms in the air
Horrid things emerge from black
Eyes glow an unholy red

[Solo- Dow]

Turn around, see nothing
The feeling of the chase remains
Falling down, I pass out
The hours seem to pass like days

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Feel the dark moon rising
Behold it has begun
Feel the dark moon rising
Horrors of the night will strike

I feel so hypnotized
A feeling of helplessness
Mind is blank, hands are tied
I wonder when I will die




5. Deceive

Propaganda warfare, they pump you full of lies
You thought that the Nazis died in 1945
Your mind is under guard, by those who've seen the light
Those who want their freedom, you have to stand and fight

[Pre Chorus]
I see the snake not give but take
The serpents bite takes away what's right

[Chorus]
What's the truth?
Where's the proof?
To make me believe
You have to deceive

[Solo- Cooper]

Impose your rules upon us and you will pay the price
You take away our freedom because you know it right
Divinity and censorship all rolled into one
When you meet your maker, my kingom will be done

[Pre Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Solo- Cooper/Dow]
[Pre Chorus]
[Chorus]




6. Fortress

Sentenced for life, pleas not heard
Guilty is the verdict you have earned
Thrown to lions, no way out
No one hears you scream and shout

Twisted souls in a morbid place
Four bloodied walls of disgrace
Pray to a god, your maker's met
Within a shelf, your life is kept

[Chorus]
Fortress of death - there's no escape
Fortress of death - your life it will take
Fortress of death - a dead end you face
Fortress of death - you'll never leave this place

Unholy terror screams echo around
In this pit no solace found
Chained to floor, starved of light
To stay alive you'll have to fight

[Chorus]

Deeper and deeper I fall into this hole
I try to get up but I don't know
Maybe I do deserve all of this
Maybe I'm just coming to grips
Am I so innocent after all?
Do I simply obey their call?
No, I will defy!

I'm beaten down by my oppressors
Made to make false confessions
Made to bow down to their rule
But I see the light, I'm no fool
Biding my time, counting the days
Wait for the moment when the minions betray
Vengeance shall be mine

[Solo- Dow/Cooper]

What can you do? Is there no way?
Just try to live though the day
There is no justice, there is no hope
You're here forever, can you cope?

[Chorus]

Fortress of death
Fortress of death
Fortress of death
Fortress of death




7. When the Scourge Strikes

Our armies are advancing
Invading foreign shore
Killing all on first sight
Slicing to the core

Crossing every boundary
We're tearing up the road
Nowhere you can hide
This you ought to know

[Chorus]
When the scourge strikes
When the scourge strikes

Hunting for your blood
Searching one and all
You try to stop the carnage
But we will never fall

Those who oppose us
Will die by our hands
There's no mercy for you
Take your final stand

[Chorus]
[Solo- Dow/Cooper]

Our armies are advancing
Invading foreign shore
Killing all on first sight
Slicing to the core

Those who oppose us
Will die by our hands
There's no mercy for you
Take your final stand

[Chorus]




8. Namarie
